<br> 
within the Department of Health Science at California State is 
<br> 
a chartered member of the School of Communication, Health and Human
<br>

<br> 
and the department can offer: workshops, conferences, certificates of
<br> 
completion, speaker's bureau, conduct research/scholarly
<br> 
projects, and other activities that benefit the community.  The
<br> 
Center is non-profit and can accept donations as well as fee for

The Center consists of various Forums and Councils which help to
<br> 
focus the activities of the Center and emphasize the special
<br> 
skills and interests of the programs in the Department. The
<br> 
Forums are major activities of the Center, while Councils are
<br> 
more informal arrangements.  Currently we have the following
